From a purist point of view, there is probably only a few true examples of discrete variation in humans. However, we have the common sense practical real world ways to describe some things as discrete. A coma scale used, Glasgow, is discrete. Also, vision is expressed as discrete values. See attached related links. In addition, number of seizures is discrete along with pulse (heart) rate.
- Blood type: Individuals can have different blood types (A, B, AB, O) that are controlled by discrete genetic factors.
- Hair color: Variation in hair color, such as black, brown, blonde, or red, is determined by discrete genetic factors.
- Tongue rolling: The ability to roll the tongue is a discrete trait controlled by genetic factors, with some individuals able to roll their tongue and others unable to.

Give examples of scientific names of 3 animals of plants?
Binomial nonmenclature is the naming of organism using their genus and species. Some good examples of a well known nomenclatures are Homosapien or humans and Canus lupis or wolves. Some examples of plant nomeclatures are Daucus carota or carrot and Prunus Perscia or peach.
What are examples of divalent metal?
Fe 2+ , 3+
What are 3 reasons how humans impact the water cycle?
The 3 reasons include:DeforestationWater pollutionAir pollution
What is 3 examples of trace fossils?
tracks,burrows and coprolite
What are 3 examples of omnivores?
humans, cats, hamsters
What are the 3 examples of variation?
Three examples of variation are height differences among individuals, eye color variability within a population, and different blood types among people. These variations are the result of genetic diversity and environmental influences.
What are 3 examples of how humans have affected Italy?
they have made it pretty, they have perfected pizza, and have caused tiny polution
What are the 3 example of multicellular?
Some examples of multicellular organisms are humans, dogs, and trees.
Is the problem y equals 3x a direct variation if so what is the constant of variation?
y=3x is a direct variation in that y varies directly with x by a factor of 3. Any linear equation (a polynomial of degree 1, which is a polynomial equation with a highest exponent of 1), is a direct variation of y to x by some constant, and this constant is simply the coefficient of the "x" term. Other examples: y=(1/2)x is a direct variation, and the constant of variation is 1/2 y=-9x is a direct variation, and the constant of variation is -9
What is the constant of variation k of the direct variation y kx through (3 2)?
It is 2/3.
What is a continious variation?
eyes, hair, fingers and toes, vertebrates... most common body parts
Is the number of textbook authors sitting at a computer discrete or continuous?
The number of textbook authors sitting at a computer is discrete because it can only take on whole number values (1, 2, 3, etc.), with no intermediate values between them.
What is the form of the slow movement of Hayden's string quartet Op 76 No 3?
strophic variation (theme and variation)
Is a DRAM variation that is designed for computers with multi-core processors?
That would be DDR-3 memory. Some multi-core systems use DDR-2 memory. Then of course there is cache memory, but that is a variation of SRAM, and it has been used ever since the 386 or 486 machines. Nowadays, cache memory is not in discrete chips, but a part of the processor. Placing the cache memory and memory controller on the CPU die greatly improves the throughput.
Is -3-35y equals 14 a direct variation?
no.
Is 5x plus 3 equals 8y plus 3 a direct variation?
Yes.
